Streakim r-rr jriaip By LARRY KEITH of The Dally Tar Heel Staff COLLEGE PARK, Md. It its not a good ball team that North Carolina engages at Cole Field House here (tonight. The Maryland Terrapins shoot poorly, rebound rarely and seldom win. In their last outing, the Terps fell 93-73 tto Miami. It was the tenth loss in 14 games under new coach Frank Fellows. There is a hitch to this seem- less Street Fighting Rages In Saigon SAIGON Bloody street tfighHing raged in Saigon Friday night, U.S. Marines battled North Vietnamese troops in house-to-house combat in Hue and at least three key province capitals in the South Vietnamese countryside were reported partially con quered by Communist armies. Battle casualties climbed steadily in the biggest and boldest Communist offensive of the war, and the dead and maimed in cluded thousands of civilians, both 'American and South Viet namese. Saigon headquarters reported more than 11,000 North Viet namese and Viet Cong killed since 6 p.m. Monday when the Com munist offensive started. Allied losses were placed at about one tenth of the number of Communist dead. New Offensive A Failure-LBJ WASHINGTON President Johnson Friday termed the Viet Cong attacks on major South Vietnamese cities "a complete failure" militarily and said they would force no change in American troop levels or basic war strategy. No great new over-all moves are going to be made," he said, but cautioned: "Anything can happen on a. moment's notice." In an informal meeting with newsmen in the White House cabinet room near his office, Johnson also said that when the dust settles, it will appear that score a psychological victory. He said the guerrilla raids were the "general uprising" phase of a plan by North Vietnamese leader Ho Chi Minn to overthrow the Saigon government and lead the way to a Communist -dominated coalition government. U.S., Russian Vessels Collide WASHINGTON The Defense Department disclosed Friday that a U.S. destroyer and a Soviet frieghlter collided in the Sea of Japan - the fourth such incident in 9 months in the same waters where the USS Pueblo was seized by North Korea. UJ9. officials claimed the earlier collisions were deliberate harassment by -the Soviets, but Navy officers indicated the latest incident appeared to be an accident. But the Soviet Union did not share that view and delivered a protest to the U.S. embassy in Moscow. There were no casualties and only minor damage when the two ships brushed in the Sea of Japan early Wednesday, the Defense Department said. Involved were the USS Rowan and the merchant ship Vislobokov. Some Diet Pills May Be Banned WASHINGTON The government told Congress Friday it was ready to ban the manufacture and sale of diet pills that con tain the combination of the drugs thyroid and digitalis which have been widely used for 30 "A danger to health," was mfwiftTwn- James L.

And the Terrapins play their best against North Carolina, which seeks to preserve third national ranking and the number one position in the Atlantic Coast Conference.

The change in Alexander and Craige is coupled with the con- nn ' jlhi are sound fundamentally just like all Maryland teams. When they shoot well, they are a very dangerous team. Don't forget they beat West Virginia and South Carolina at College Park on good shooting nights." Last sea's on It he circumstances were similar when the Tar Heels barely managed a 79-78 , win. Dick Grubar's clutch freethrows in the final 24 seconds made the difference. In the first contest at Chapel Hill, the going was a little easier as Carolina won out 85-77. Maryland will be at a great height disadvantage. Its front line composed of center Will Hetzel and forwards Rick Drescher and Billy Jones average less than 6-4 per man compared to UNC's 6-8. The guards are 6-0 Pete Johnson and 5-9 John Avery. Johnson and Hetzel are the leading scorers with 13 point per game averages. No changes are expected in the Carolina starting five of Rusty Clark, Bill Bunting, Lar ry Miller, Dick Grubar and Charlie Scott. With 14 games behind them, 13 of them wins and four of those in ACC play, the Tar Heels are averaging 83.4 points an outing. The defense has done 10 points better. Miller's average is 24.1, Scott's 17.6 and Clark's 15.3. Clark has 127 rebounds and Miller 111. . The Terrapins can contest Carolina with a more than ade quate defense that is superior - to Itheir own offense. The yield per game is only six points higher than the production. Poor outside shooting which hovers around 36 per cent is the main reason. . V V Cover-Up Q. Q CjQfZSOFRm Challenge Hall struct ion of the new law school building behind Navy Field. It was originally announced that Alexander would be used to house the women students who would be forced out of . Smith. According to Wadsworth, the law students in Alexander will be moved to Craige which is nearer the new law building. All Craige undergraduates, ex- : cept rising seniors, will be -t moved to other dormitories. Parker residents, however, Wadsworth stated, will have top priority on rooms for fall semester, and Craige un- ; dergraduates will be next in , line. He noted that residents of rooms in other dorms will not be moved unles they requet to be shifted elsewhere. Alexander was converted . this year to house law students, along with several Highway Patrol trainees. John Gresham, governor of Scott College, said none of the residents of the college knew of the change in the Parker's status until officers were, told by the administration. He added there was nothing that could be done to stop the change. Parker president David Len non was not available for com- . merit. The residents of Smith, Alderman and Nurses' all tried (to combat the change in the status of their dorms, but none were successful. . .. f Smith girls protested more vigorously than did the others, producing the will of the late James Pleasant Mason which gave 800 acres of land and $1,000 to 'the University. The girls claimed the will stipulated that portraits of Mason's two daughters remain in Sm&h, but their claim was proven false. Deans James Cansler and Katherine Carmichael were in a faculty conference Friday afternoon and could not be reached for comment on the recently announced conversions. SG Gets $2,550 Sears Grant By TERRY GINGRAS of the Daily Tar Heel Staff Student government has received $2550 grant from the Sears and Roebuck Foundation to sponsor a leadership training program, according to J Seeking shelter is the name of the game. It's played here by two of Carolina's 15,000 students who put The Daily Tar Heel to use as a portable canopy to avoid the rain drops which pelted Chapel Hill Friday. The rain, which began Thursday night, was the first to mar the relatively nice weather that prevailed the first wee', of Spring Semester. It's too early to say, though, whether Chapel Hill's annual monsoon has begun: only time and the rain-guage will tell. i If I -fit l L j I II iJL-fi, ,j; X ... 2. A If ... 4: x. I 11 1! I :,Ji T- - !

"The funds will result in higher quality of student leadership." The $2550 is the full-amount student government re quested. Kiel said he received notice of the grant Thursday from Dr. Eugene Watson of the School of Education. Dr. Watson has been working on the leadership program with student government and wrote the request for funds. The leadership program will be administered by a student government committee under the chairmanship of Noel Duni- vant. Kiel reported that 20 ap plications have been received for the program.

What constitutes "living?" That's what hasn't been decided,' said Miss Checksfield. Miss Checksfield indicated she thought the situation might make the Dean of Women's of fice . less likely to approve WRCs proposal on seniors visiting in apartments and the no closing hours for seniors proposal. "Any situation where girls are taking advantage of a new rule (allowing seniors and women 21 to have apartments, would naturally make the Dean of Women's office think a little more about approving more mid-year changes," said Miss Checksfield. Assistant Dean of Women Heather Ness aid, however, that she could "see no direct relationship" between the new ly - arisen situation and the proposals awaiting approval. "It is evident that students are unclear as to commuter status this ought to be defin ed," added Mrs. Ness. Chancellor Kills UNC-G 'Open Halls' Special to The Daily Tar Heel GREENSBORO The bill passed by the UXC-G Student L egislature permitting up perclass coeds to live in "open halls" without closing hours has been vetoed by Chanceucr James S. Ferguson. The bill, passed cn December 5 proposed a magnetic key-card system similar to that proposed as a means of eliminating closing hours for Senior Women at the Chapel Hill campus. The Greensboro chancellor did approve, however, a bill to extend UNC-G closing hours. As of Friday the coeds there have a 12 p.m. curfew on weeknights, 1 a.m. on Friday and Sunday nights, and 2 a.m. on Saturdays. In his statement to the UNC G Student Legislature, Dr. Ferguson said that no closing hours would "hamper the safe ty & security of the students," and that such a policy would have an adverse effect on group living.
